Infested Thrinax: Flash and Saproling Surge
Infested Thrinax brings a compact, high tempo edge to a green black shell. With Flash you can drop it in at instant speed, answering a removal spell or flashing in during combat to surprise an opponent. Its trigger turns every death of a nontoken creature you control into a fresh wave of value, generating 1/1 green Saproling tokens equal to that creature's power. The result is a scalable engine that grows with your board state and your willingness to trade threats.
Lore wise the card evokes a predator rich ecosystem where decline births an immediate swarm. The flavor text hints at a mass feeding frenzy, underscoring how a single death can cascade into a developing army.
